How M. Chuck started their logo design journey

Summary

Us Window & Door is the most experienced window and door installation company in San Diego County. We have been in business for more than 22 years now. We are honest, reliable and trustworthy. And our motto is, “Experience, Quality and Reliability”.
You can see our current logo on our website at uswindow-door.com. It is a bit out-dated and we want to freshen it up to look a bit newer while keeping the values that have made our company thrive for so many years intact. We are also going to be working on a brand new website to go with this logo.

Company name

What inspires you and how do you envision the design for your business?

The updated logo needs to look very similar to the current one (uswindow-door.com). It is being designed in conjunction with a new website. You can read about the company on the website (uswindow-door.com).

Wants

vector format final product (ai or eps)
Some ideas: more dimension, shine, web 2.0 look, simple, clean lines.
Keep the same basic colors (obviously red, white and blue are the colors of the USA).
I will be very in-touch with recommendations for revisions.
Use tagline: San Diego’s Leader in Vinyl Windows

Don't want

I do not want a logo that is too different from our current one. I already have my vehicles with the current logo, so customers should still be able to recognize that the two logos are from the same company.
